I love a love story, and to me the wedding of Kate and William is just that. A beautiful and charming lady is marrying a prince....a handsome prince. And one whose mother had her own tragic fairy tale. I watched Princess Diana and Prince Charles wedding on TV that fateful year of 1981. No one could have ever imagined how life would have unfolded for them. We watched as she loved and embraced her children publicly and gave so much of herself as she tried to find her own identity. We've all shed so many tears with this family, both in happiness and sadness. Then when William gave Kate his mother's sapphire and diamond engagement ring, our hearts stopped. Diana's legacy and dreams came back to life. May this couple only know happiness and love and may their special day be be as enchanting as they are.

I saw this drink from a local establishment that was just brilliant all the way around. So, I toast to the lovely couple hoping all their dreams come true. Bling-bling....Ching-ching!!Kate's Ring Martini

Great color to that drink.. don't they both have blue eyes? Well a great something borrowed blue. I love using hat pins and stick pins in drinks... so much prettier that a plastic toothpick. I had a little box of them that went missing when I moved. One day I know I will find it ... along with the rest of the stuff that ended up in the infamous "BOX 13".
